While Iran conveyed its response to the US proposal to end the war to Washington through Pakistan, US President Donald Trump made his first statement. Saying 'We haven't completed our objectives yet,' Trump issued a harsh warning to Tehran, stating, 'We will take Iran's buried uranium at some point and monitor its location. If anyone approaches it, we will strike them.'
Iran has conveyed its response to the US proposal to end the war to Washington via Pakistani mediators. According to a report in the Iranian media, under the proposed plan, negotiations at this stage will focus on ending the war. The Iranian press, without providing details about Iran's response, stated, "According to the proposed plan, the negotiations will focus on ending the war in the region."
TRUMP'S FIRST STATEMENT: WE'RE NOT DONE YET
Following this development, US President Donald Trump also made his first statement. Responding to questions from journalist Sharyl Attkisson at the White House, Trump signaled that pressure on the Tehran administration would continue.
Assessing the results of the strikes carried out against Iran, Trump claimed that a large portion of strategic targets had been destroyed. "The Iranians' A, B, and even C team leaders are gone," Trump said. "They are defeated, but that does not mean we are done yet. We could continue for another two weeks and hit every target. We have probably taken care of about 70% of the specific targets we wanted to hit. Even if we don't, it would take them years to rebuild."
"WE CANNOT ALLOW THEM TO ACCESS NUCLEAR WEAPONS"
Describing Iran's nuclear program as a disaster scenario for the world, Trump criticized the policies of former US President Barack Obama and highlighted the risk of nuclear proliferation. Calling the Tehran administration "crazy," Trump argued that a nuclear Iran would pose an irreversible threat to Israel, the Middle East, and beyond.
URANIUM THREAT: IF ANYONE APPROACHES, WE WILL STRIKE
Stating that they are monitoring Iran's enriched uranium stockpiles and nuclear facilities in real time, Trump said, "The Space Force is watching that area. If anyone approaches that place, we will know and we will strike them. At some point, we will take Iran's enriched uranium as we wish."
IRAN'S RESPONSE
According to information from the Iranian press, the core of Tehran's response to the US proposal is focused on ending the ongoing military tension in the region. Diplomatic sources suggest that for now, the parties are concentrating on "temporary formulas to stop the conflict" rather than a comprehensive agreement.
- According to experts, the following key issues stand out between the parties:
- Reducing military activity in the Strait of Hormuz
- Halting new strikes against Iran
- Withdrawing threats against American bases in the region
- Returning oil shipments to normal
- Controlling mutual attacks along the Israel-Iran line
OIL MARKETS CLOSELY WATCHING DEVELOPMENTS
The possibility of diplomatic progress between Iran and the US is being closely monitored in energy markets. In recent weeks, oil prices have surged sharply due to the crisis in the Strait of Hormuz, sparking concerns of a new energy crisis in global markets. Experts warn that if negotiations fail, larger military conflicts could occur in the region.
CRITICAL WAIT IN THE MIDDLE EAST
Diplomatic sources indicate that contacts conducted through Pakistan may intensify further in the coming days. Whether the parties will sit down directly at the negotiating table remains a matter of curiosity.
